Building beakers  Reply with quote  

Hmmm, I have looked into every shop to find building beakers.. (Or stack cups, I don't know the exact translation) And I have found them!
Today, I tried if Iago could stack those beakers. And he passed with flying colors! I guess I need to find more difficult things.. Rolling Eyes
I spent more time finding those beakers than he spent understanding the game! Mad Laughing

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy WOW I am surprised I would have thought that stacking cups would have been harder for a parrot! We need to see a video of that lol
Did you use a clicker to teach him that?

Thanks for the replies! Smile

Well, I have to give him the beakers in order for him to stack them.. But it's a start.. Very Happy
It wasn't so hard at all. He knows how to throw objects into boxes, so this was kind of easy for him?! It's the same thought.. Very Happy I did use the clicker to train him to throw objects inside a box.. Very Happy

I made a vid of it.. Very Happy Of my little Einstein birdy LOL!

Very Happy I saw the vids of Iago with stacking and placing objects in box. He is very smart. I plan on getting the box and pieces for Pepper, my sennie. I hope she can learn as fast as Iago. Einstein Iago Laughing

Do you mean that white box? Please get it, because along with the box comes a very CLEAR explanation on how to teach them things! And that's sooo important! Cool

Very Happy Yes it is the white box, Drs foster and Smith website sell the box with the pieces for only 12 dollars. Maybe santabird will deliverit to Pepper for x-mas. Looks like a lot of fun. Been trying to teach her basket ball but she just likes throwing the ball for now.

Oh I truly hope Santabird will get it for Pepper! He'd be pleased I'm sure! I have heard other birds on the Dutch forum practicing too and they really enjoy it! Very Happy
They'll get it eventually. Look at Zazu. He was a master at throwing things around! Rolling Eyes
